Tidal

Death is close

I hear it whispering my name

Tited of trying to live

I wish to be centred

Only in emptiness

Talk goes round and round in circles

While underneath our hearts beat

Only to the rhythm of love

Life is complex

Mysterious

Tidal pulls govern us

As we seek to swim

Creatures of the deep sense our

Fevered movements

Disturbing their peace

As the sonar sounds the approach

Of another vessel

We fall underneath

As a huge wave rises

And breathing becomes impossible

Lately the deepest mysteries of my soul

Elude me

Things I thought so real

Appear only as illusions

As the phantoms that call me out of life

Go silent

While yet another full moon rises

Reflecting its luminescent face

Upon the vast surface of

This inner ocean
